Linux is rather behind on TCPCT implementation, so this will help with future software compatibility. Currently, any userland programs written to RFC-to-be-6013 will not interoperate with Linux 2.6.33 and beyond. I've made these patches for 2.6.37 -- they'll also need to be ported to earlier releases. I'm not on this list, so anybody with comments should CC me. Thanks.
